Re: connection to upper & lower

[Guest guest]

, I am not a doctor so I truly dont know. Could it possibly be that your

brain stem had so much tension on it, not enough to stretch it down far enough

for them to spot the chiari, but tension, that when the cord was released the

stem was sort of stretched out and not strong enough to hold it? I dont know,

just taking a shot in the dark. I'm sorry for the Chiari but I am glad that you

got the TC released, it has its own set of problems.   Blessings,
